Christian Coffee Chat

Each Sunday from 9:00-9:45 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall, enjoy a cup of coffee or tea with friends in an informal, laid back discussion of applying God’s word to today’s daily issues.


You can also join us online


BIBLE STUDY TOPIC

The Sunday morning Christian Coffee Chat class plans to spend 5 Sundays (April 21-May 19) reading and discussing the Biblical passages that are often used to condemn homosexuality and exclude LGBTQ+ folks from full participation in the church. We will use material that the ELCA published several years ago.  The resources remain relevant to today’s continued discussions of hospitality and welcome like this “Background Essay on Biblical Texts” by Arland J. Hultgren and Walter F. Taylor Jr.


The Reconciling in Christ (RIC) journey to be fully inclusive of all of God's children, especially the LGBTQIA+ community, begins with a more robust 18-month process than this important 5 week Bible Study.  CVLC members have expressed interest in starting the RIC journey, but we have yet to officially begin.


God's mission for CVLC remains "fearlessly trusting God, we accept all others, ourselves, and our calling to give comfort."

Fearlessly trusting God, we accept all others, ourselves, and our calling to give comfort.


Comfort your family by writing down your funeral wishes;
comfort your church by leaving CVLC in your will.

I have worked with numerous families over the years as they plan their loved one's funeral.  The families that knew what their loved one wanted do so much better than those who do not know.  Give comfort to your family by writing down your wishes and sharing it with them.  In the same way, you will give comfort to your church by leaving a legacy gift for CVLC in your will.

~ Pastor Ben
